Exchange wont send internet email

I have an exchange 5.5 server running.I can receive emails
through my exchange but when a client tries to send any mail
using smtp it gets sent back to the sender. Internal email
is handled with no problem just any mail ouside of the LAN
is where i cannot figure this out. I have IMS installed but
am not sure how to set it up. My mail and smpt server is the
same. Do i have to run DNS on my server and create a MX and A
record?

If anyone has any examples use
mydomain.com as an example to give me an idea..Thanks

Hi Aazzin
I have the same problem as above. I moved recently into Exchange and I am
not sure how to setup the IMS. If you get a response, please email me the
solution, I would really appreciate it.

Re: Exchange wont send internet email

You will have to have your ISP setup an MX and A record in the DNS that points
to your Exchange Server. Talk to your ISP and they should be able to help
you out. When you setup the IMC have it use DNS and everything should work
normally. I hope this helps but you didn't give a lot of information as
to how your Internet e-mail was setup. If you have any more questions, feel
freee to e-mail me.
